In this month’s software update we’ve made some improvements to the main screen of Emsisoft Anti-Malware and added a number of handy tools for your added security.

New network lockdown feature

This new feature allows you to instantly take your devices offline by clicking the on/off switch. Use it in an emergency situation if you suspect that a malware infection has taken place, or simply block hidden programs from accessing the Internet without your consent (e.g. if you’re on a metered connection).

Note that Emsisoft protection updates will still be let through and the connection to Emsisoft Cloud Console will remain intact to allow your admins to investigate the issue. Network lockdown can also be enabled remotely from the Cloud Console, either for single devices or all devices of a particular group.

New firewall status display

The overview screen now shows your current firewall status, be it the Windows built-in firewall or a third-party product. The status display also allows you to turn your firewall on or off with just a click.
